If people don't have the stomach for this when what will happen when it comes to the US who will certainly attempt to leverage the size of their economy to exact the most concessions from us possible? Do we just pack up and go home then too?
Oh, please! Do you really expect the UK to except whatever deal is thrown at us? If that is not defeatist, what is?
